<p>A method and apparatus suspend a program operation in a nonvolatile writeable memory. The nonvolatile writeable memory includes a memory array, a command register (120), and memory array control circuitry (140). The command register (120) decodes a program suspend command and provides a suspend signal as an output. The memory array control circuitry (140) is coupled to receive the suspend signal from the command register (120). The memory array control circuitry (140) performs a program operation in which data is written to the memory array. The memory array control circuitry (140) suspends the program operation upon receiving the suspend signal.</p> |
